Ski has distinctly different taste in 20 oz. bottles vs. 12 oz. cans, and especially when compared with Excel's 12 oz. non-returnable glass, 12 & 10 oz. returnable glass, and pre- and post-mix syrup. Excel makes it with pure cane sugar, and the Excel version is a common breakfast drink in Clinton County, IL. The downside is that it is fairly limited in distribution, centered on Breese, IL. I have a home post-mix soda fountain and I have to say that many of the qualities you mention of Ski above are true for the 20 oz. plastic bottles made with HFCS, but I'd invite you to try the cane sugar variety -- it provides a "cleaner" and "crisper" taste.
